Assigning Hybridization: A Tutorial
... without hybridization by using both lobes of one 2p orbital (such as 2px) to form both bonds, but other rules (which we won't go into here) prevent this. So we need a set of hybrid orbitals to make two new bonds with 180o H–C–C bond angles. Two hybrid orbitals (called sp orbitals) are constructed fr ...

Molecular orbital
In chemistry, a molecular orbital (or MO) is a mathematical function describing the wave-like behavior of an electron in a molecule. This function can be used to calculate chemical and physical properties such as the probability of finding an electron in any specific region. The term orbital was introduced by Robert S. Mulliken in 1932 as an abbreviation for one-electron orbital wave function. At an elementary level, it is used to describe the region of space in which the function has a significant amplitude. Molecular orbitals are usually constructed by combining atomic orbitals or hybrid orbitals from each atom of the molecule, or other molecular orbitals from groups of atoms. They can be quantitatively calculated using the Hartree–Fock or self-consistent field (SCF) methods.
